Double toe update: LANDED (but ugly😅) If you guys watched my story you guys saw me fall a million times but fall down 7, get up 8 👊🏼 Definitely need to work on my air position since my right elbow opens up early, but thanks @wantonz422 for coaching me via text 😂⛸ #kkarmaloveskates

There is something inherently playful about balls. You can roll a bucket of balls out to a bunch of kids, adults, or dogs and the immediate response is play. Is that innate or is that cultural? Why would a dog have an instinctual response to a ball or does our culture of play and balls influence the behavior of dogs? But you can also look at other examples of non-human animals (elephants, bears, cats, gorillas) and when a ball is inserted into the equation play ensues. I am drawn toward using balls in my movement training with clients. Whether it is a medicine ball, playground ball (kickball), or tennis ball, play, movement, and smiles usually follow.
